It says to look out for the full moon making it's way through the earths shadow at 6:32am with the eclipse happening around 7:40, reachin max at 8:17 and ending at 8:53..
Should be more visible for those in the south skies permitting of course.. Can't wait, it's a very clear sky here tonight and has been all day so should be nice and visible even up here..
Don't forget folks, it's a lunar eclipse, totally safe to look at with the naked eye!!!

Morning Del, I haven't got out of bed to have a look just yet, window faces south so would have to go outside to see it! Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Thinking about it though as I have to go out to defrost the car at some point..

Not looking forward to it like, haha

Hope you're ok this morning.

I'm just popping in quickly before I get up.

Thanks Bertyboy - I love things like eclipses, meteor showers etc and always try to look out for them. But far too cloudy and grey to see it here too.

It was really beautiful here in Leeds, very clear skies but that made it deathly cold.. Took ages to defrost the car again then we parked up at the end of our street looking over the fields to the west watching it happen... Really nice. Tried to take some photos but I don't think they turned out particularly well, it wasn't easy with frozen, painful fingers, lol..
